Narendra Modi monthly Mann Ki Baat radio broadcasts

Overview

In his monthly radio programme ‘Mann Ki Baat’, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has focused on encouraging public participation in various national initiatives.

During the 137th episode, the Prime Minister highlighted the success of citizen-led sanitation drives, such as the ‘Clean-Up Patwai’ group in Uttar Pradesh, and the ‘Har Ghar Tiranga’ campaign, which saw significant engagement through flag-hoisting and digital photo sharing.

In the 138th episode, the focus expanded to include the national census, which Modi described as a ‘collective national duty’. He reported that the first phase is nearing completion, with data for over 32 crore families recorded across various regions, including Ladakh and Jammu & Kashmir. He also continued to promote cleanliness efforts as a tribute to Mahatma Gandhi, noting youth-led projects involving river, stepwell, and beach cleaning, as well as community efforts in states like Madhya Pradesh and Andhra Pradesh.

In this same episode, the Prime Minister also marked the upcoming 10th anniversary of the 2016 surgical strikes, characterizing the military operation as a demonstration of India’s ‘zero-tolerance’ policy toward terrorism. He linked these operations to subsequent actions such as the Balakot airstrike and Operation Sindoor. Other topics addressed included the ‘Nasha Mukt Yuva Abhiyan’ to combat youth drug abuse, wildlife conservation successes in Assam’s Sonai Rupai Wildlife Sanctuary—where the removal of encroachments has aided elephant and pygmy hog populations—and the economic impact of the ‘One District One Product’ scheme on amla processing in Pratapgarh, Uttar Pradesh. He also discussed the history of the Modhera Sun Temple and its transformation into a solar village. Additionally, he commended women in the Sundarbans for mangrove restoration efforts and paid tribute to the late VHP leader Ashok Singhal on his 100th birth anniversary, while also extending condolences to the families of those lost in the 9/11 attacks.
